Featured Foods

Pizza is a staple of the hunter diet and also a favorite of the original Death. See our entry on Pizza for a detailed exploration of the topic.

Dean & Pie

The biggest Supernatural romance has to be Dean Winchester and his love of pie! The running joke is that every time Dean asks someone to get him pie, they never do. There is so much information on Dean's quest for pie that it has its very own SuperWiki page:

4.18 The Monster at the End of This Book - Dean is not allowed to eat a bacon cheeseburger, as it's 'opposites day.' He orders a "tofu veggie burger", but the waitress accidentally gives him the bacon cheeseburger and then takes it away from Dean after he takes a bite.

4.22 Lucifer Rising - Zachariah tries to placate Dean with a plate full of his favorite burgers and beers from a seaside shack in Delaware.

11.12 Don't You Forget About Me - Dean attempts to get Sam to eat an "Elvis" burger with him. Sam declines the beef and donut monstrosity, to Dean's annoyance.

12.18 The Memory Remains - After paying a visit to the meat plant, Dean orders a burger at the cafe. Sam questions how he could eat after seeing the butchered animal remains, but Dean acknowledges that "Burger's beef. Bacon's pig. Soylent Green's people. But this... This is Heaven." before taking a bite from his burger.

14.11 Damaged Goods - Before seeing Mary, Dean visits with Donna Hanscum who takes him to get the "best burger in Minnesota," a claim Dean corrects as being the best burger in the world.

Sam and Salad

Sammy loves his salad, often choosing that over a burger or other fast food on the menu, much to Dean's amusement/horror.

The most famous Sammy salad moment is during 5.12 Swap Meat when Sam orders a Health Quake Salad shake, leading to the line "oh, you shake it up, baby" from Dean.

Fandom had decided Sam loved salad long before it had been established on the show.

Dean and eating

2.15 Tall Tales - Dean sitting on Sam's bed eating something messy (chili cheese fries?) from a disposable plate, annoying Sam. Dean eating from a bowl of toffee/nuts until his cheeks are full up like a chipmunks, annoying Sam. Also the classic cocktail scene where when Dean describes what he is drinking he replies "I don't know, man, I think they're called purple nurples?"

2.18 Hollywood Babylon - Dean eating on set; first the miniature Philly cheesesteak sandwiches, which he describes as "delicious!" Then the plate of taquitos that he is munching his way through while talking to Sam, offering them to Sam by saying "Taquito? They're wonderful."

1.18 Something Wicked - Young Dean cooks young Sam dinner and Sam complains, "I'm sick of scabetti-ohs." Sam then asks for Lucky Charms instead, but there is only enough left for one person. Dean gives in and gives them to Sam, who in turn offers Dean the toy.

14.11 Damaged Goods - Dean regales Mary with a story of how he attempted to make Winchester Surprise for Sam as a child. Using bologna and cheese, he cooked them on a hot plate which stunk up the motel room and did not even taste right in the end.

Mary and food

Mary: All I did was point at some stuff on a take-out menu. I would've cooked, but I, uh...don't.

14.11 Damaged Goods - While visiting Mary at Donna's cabin, Dean asks his mother to make him "Winchester Surprise." Mary, surprised that Dean remembers the meal, tells him she can't believe she fed him and John something so greasy and basically a "heart attack on a plate." She of course agrees to cook it for Dean, who requests it be made with extra cheese.

14.13 Lebanon - Mary once again prepared Winchester Surprise, this time for John, Dean, and Sam. The family sits together for the first time ever and has a family dinner.

9.11 First Born - "I miss you PB&J." Castiel laments that as a human he loved PB&J sandwiches (with jelly, not jam), but as an angel he can taste every molecule, making the experience of eating less enjoyable.

Death and food

Death (one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse) has a fondness for fast food, so much so that Dean even tries to placate him with some fried pickle chips when they bind him, and gives him an assortment of handmade Mexican food as an offering in exchange for killing him.

Dean: Boy, what's with you and cheap food?Death: I could ask you the same thing.

10.23 Brother's Keeper - As an offering to Death, Dean cooks a Mexican spread, with the bad kinds of fat, in exchange for Death killing him.

Other memorable eating moments

6.04 Weekend at Bobby's - Bobby and his ruined attempts to sit down and enjoy the homemade peach cobbler that he has been given.

7.22 There Will Be Blood - Dean is devastated to learn that the modified corn syrup the leviathan are using to make humans docile and obese is in nearly all his favorite foods, including pie. Sam suggest bananas and water as an alternative.

7.06 Slash Fiction - When Sam and Dean pull up at a gas station, Sam asks if dean would like "the usual" and Dean replies "Rhymes with sing-songs." Sam can be seen buying a packet of a treat called "Bing Bongs" This is a play on the cakes known as Ding Dongs. An ad for Ding Dongs is later seen on a bus in 9.02 Devil May Care.

12.03 The Foundry - A young hipster couple rave about the avocado toast topped with a quail egg they have just eaten.

14.04 Mint Condition - Dean can be seen eating a bag of Let's Potato Chips in the hospital. Let's Potato Chips is a fictional brand that has appeared in such shows as Community, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and The Vampire Diaries, among many others.

14.06 Optimism - Jack reveals to Dean how his taste buds have changed since losing his powers, giving that as the reason he is adding so much sugar to his coffee, because he can't get the taste right anymore.

Monster Munch

Changeling - Feed on a human's synovial fluid. (Synovial fluid is a viscous, non-Newtonian fluid found in the cavities of synovial joints.)

Rugaru - The rugaru is the result of a genetic mutation that, when expressed, causes the affected human to experience a murderous, cannibalistic hunger. In 4.04 Metamorphosis the term "long pig" becomes Dean's word of the day.

Soul Eater - Steal victims souls, and feed off them for years until the spirit withers away.

Vampires - Mainly human blood, although can subsist on animal blood. Lenore leads a nest which she insists must not feed on humans; the effort ultimately fails. When Benny returns from Purgatory he refuses to kill humans for food and uses blood from blood bank supplies.

Vetala - Vetala are creatures that sedate their victims with venom and then feed on their blood over a number of days.
